1930s Italian Vintage Art Deco Glass
Murano Glass
Art Deco furniture is characterized by its celebration of modern life. More than its emphasis on natural wood grains and focus on traditional craftsmanship, vintage Art Deco dining chairs, tables, desks, cabinets and other furniture — which typically refers to pieces produced during the 1920s and 1930s — is an ode to the glamour of the “Roaring Twenties.”

ART DECO FURNITURE DESIGNERS TO KNOW
VINTAGE ART DECO FURNITURE ON 1STDIBS
Few design styles are as universally recognized and appreciated as Art Deco. The term alone conjures visions of the Roaring Twenties, Machine Age metropolises, vast ocean liners, sleek typography and Prohibition-era hedonism. The iconic movement made an indelible mark on all fields of design throughout the 1920s and ’30s, celebrating society’s growing industrialization with refined elegance and stunning craftsmanship.
Widely known designers associated with the Art Deco style include Émile-Jacques Ruhlmann, Eileen Gray, Maurice Dufrêne, Paul Follot and Jules Leleu.
The term Art Deco derives from the name of a large decorative arts exhibition held in Paris in 1925. “Art Deco design” is often used broadly, to describe the work of creators in associated or ancillary styles. This is particularly true of American Art Deco, which is also called Streamline Moderne or Machine Age design. (Streamline Moderne, sometimes known as Art Moderne, was a phenomenon largely of the 1930s, post–Art Nouveau.)
Art Deco textile designers employed dazzling floral motifs and vivid colors, and while Art Deco furniture makers respected the dark woods and modern metals with which they worked, they frequently incorporated decorative embellishments such as exotic animal hides as well as veneers in their seating, case pieces, living room sets and bedroom furniture.
From mother-of-pearl inlaid vitrines to chrome aviator chairs, bold and inventive works in the Art Deco style include chaise longues (also known as chaise lounges) and curved armchairs. Today, the style is still favored by interior designers looking to infuse a home with an air of luxury and sophistication.
The vintage Art Deco furniture for sale on 1stDibs includes dressers, coffee tables, decorative objects and more.

1930's WMF Table Or Desk Lamp, Red, Orange, White Black Glass and Chrome Sphere
By WMF Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik
Located in North Miami, FL
This stunning and artful Art Deco original vintage glass lamp is from the fine and noted German metal company of WMF whose span of decades of business has produced top line pieces in many mediums. It is red glass with swirls and veining of black set against the red sphere ball. It becomes a sea of orange red with hints of amber amoebas floating on and off when it is lite. It is an early one all with original but newly nickeled silver hardware. It has been fully rewired and restored for United States sockets and use. The bulb is on the inside and has the two part socket with the round turn off /on switch. When lite, the most amazing beautiful sculptural glow, color and forms take shape inside almost like sea creatures from the water. The glass portion alone is 12" H x 13" D. Sorry the photos do not do justice to show you the on presentation of gorgeous light and forms. This now just needs a great white drum shade. It is of the period of the 1930s but looks so modern. This is unusual, sculptural and artistic from the time period yet remains modern looking. It makes a great table or side lamp with sculptural internal forms when it is lite. This is a beauty. When it is on at night, the forms are amazing with great color of orange and reds floating amoeba like forms. It is also just beautiful just turned off. It does not seem Art Deco but very modern looking now. This is a sexy lamp...
